NFL Week 2 thread

Peyton Manning

Ryan Mathews carted off the field, his ankle looks to have taken a nasty knock.

Am I the only one who thought game over as soon a New England scored a TD?

As a Cowboy's fan, I cannot but be deeply concerned by what I have seen over the past two weeks. The decision to cut Folk and Suisham have been proven incorrect, while the decision to trade Patrick Crayton to the Chargers is really biting the team in the ass, and it is blunt from post score kick offs

The team has the body language of a team which is unhappy. Romo spent most of the evening with his shoulders slumped. The same old problems with indiscipline have remained, and cost the Cowboys almost 50 yards today, while it cost them a game winning touchdown last week. Amazingly, Jay Cutler was given prime positions to make some incisive passes, and it has been a long time since I have seen the likes of his throw to Knox.

Last term the Cowboys lost twice to the Giants, once to the Packers, once to the Chargers, and once to the Broncos (who were riding the crest of a wave) in regular season. This term they have already lost to the Skins and the Bears, who MUST be beaten if a team is looking to do much this season.

what's the record for combined number of turnovers in a half? chargers jags just keep handing the ball back to each other.
edit: and chargers give it back one play later ffs
edit 2: 2 plays and chargers get it

7 so far

Maybe too soon? Pats will prob win but the Jets D is pretty good tho...

Oat23

I have come to hate the Jets so much over the past few months. I hope the Pats kill them.

This is a tough one for me. I was so up for the Jets in week 2 last year. Now I'd be happy to see either team lose. Probably slightly up for the Jets though, becazuse the Pats always frighten me, tbh.

Yeah but I was more thinking of the Jets offence which subsequently have already proved me wrong

Jets offense is pretty good on the ground. Sanchise, so far, has been decent too.

Good paced game.... Jets might take this one if they contiue to keep working hard at it.

Revis is Moss' little biatch What a catch.

cooker3

What a catch!

cruiserweight

Great play by Hernandez and then a great catch by Moss even though he is on Revis Island

kryogen

BOO YA!!!

Brady to Moss!

EDIT: gotta give a special mention to Hernandez

Peyton Manning

THE FREAK!!!!

gcgirl

Moss what a catch

Peyton Manning

That's some 2007 shít right there.

Nice that Revis had a ready made excuse though. How convenient

kryogen

Revis who?? :P

kryogen

Good drive here from Sanchez

kryogen

shame that field goal was good

Pegasusbridge

Good game so far. It took an amazing catch by moss to beat revis. If revis has tweaked the hamstring again the jets are in trouble.

cooker3

No way Revis is acting. He would never miss a down just for that.

Peyton Manning

Dang. He IS human.

Peyton Manning

Broncos up by 17 now.

kryogen

Anyone else have the feeling the Jets are gonna win this one?

They are playing a lot better now on both sides of the ball

Peyton Manning

Mark Sanchez having the game of his life

Edit: LT, fuuuuuuuuuuck

El Horseboxo

The Patriots need a big 4th quarter. They are second in everything at the moment. LT is killing it. And a Jets TD.

Peyton Manning

Balls

Danger_dave1

Bring it home jets !

cooker3

I agree with Simms. I wouldn't have gone for a 2 pointer.

kryogen

2 point conversion successful

jets up by a TD

Pyjamarama

Edwards beard is AWESOME!

Pegasusbridge

LT in full flight is still a fantastic sight. Still worried that without revis the jets will find it hard to contain the pats. Hope I'm wrong

cooker3

Looks like an interception to me.

me-skywalker

I dont know if I would want the Jets to win this'll just spur them on for the rest of the season and set them up big time full of confidence... If Pats win its just back to business but also shows they do have vulnerabilities and can be got at.

great interception!

cruiserweight

Redskins just had a field goal blocked, which would have put them 10 points up with about 6 minutes left. From the Redskins being in a strong position, there is plenty of time left for the Texans to come back

kryogen

important stop right there

Peyton Manning

If there's any QB you want when you're behind in the 4th quarter, it's Brady.

I forget his stats, but in these situations, it's ridiculous how clutch he is.

themont85

Not so terrific Tom here. Sanchez has looked very good.

Bills blown out as expected, we ran hard but just lack talent...

Matt Forte is more of a receiver these days than a runner. Only saw highlights and stats and whilst Cutler is playing great and so is the D, those running stats are awful. They won't go far with those.

Devin Hester's catch was just :eek:, Randy Moss's was equally as :eek: You gotta love the NFL.

mikemac

Was there a reason the Raiders benched Jason Campbell and brought on Gradowski at half time?

Was it injury or just bad form?
I'm still trying to find out

I reckon the Redskins are going to blow their big lead, Texans are driving up the field

davyjose

Schaub has to be one of the most underrated QB's ever!

All even now But there are two minutes left on the clock for the redskins

mikemac

Oh yeah

Andre Johnson gets a TD on 4&10 with 2:05 remaining

Game now tied

Matt Schuab is indeed underrated, among the top group of QB's in the league

davyjose

Not looking good for New England

kryogen

should be game over right here for the jets

god i hate the jets

kryogen

Game Over

davyjose

TD Jets - game over!!!

Pyjamarama

That should be that. Big statement by the Jets. Sanchez looking very good...

Pats secondary being exposed...

I don't think he's injured. Whatever the reason, be grateful!
